Jun. 3rd, 2013 04:51 pmSo Matt Smith is leaving Doctor Who. I wish I was sad, I wish I could 'mourn' him, but the truth is I never felt anything towards his Doctor. Now, that's probably down to poor writing more than anything else, but his characterisation of the Doctor never clicked with me on any level. I, quite simply, found him incredibly annoying.
But one of my favourite things about Doctor Who has always been that we eventually get someone new. A new interpretation, a new personality. Whilst I didn't enjoy Matt Smith's stint, I'm looking forward to the, hopefully, drastic transition between his Doctor and the next one and what that will do to the show as a whole.
Which is why I've made a list of who I'd love to see get the role~
( My 13 choices for the 12th Doctor in descending order. )
